CD-R/CD-RW which is finalized incorrectlyNotes on discs

Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the

center out. If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints on the CD, it may cause tracking error.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot

air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can

be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
On placement

Do not leave the player in a location near heat sources, in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock or in a car subject to the direct rays of the sun.

Do not place the player on an inclined or unstable place.

Do not place anything within 10 mm of the side of the cabinet. The ventilation holes must be unobstructed for the player to operate properly and prolong the life of its components.

Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding or spring-wound watches away from the player to prevent possible damage from the magnet.

On operation

If the player is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player section. Should this occur, the player will not operate properly. In this case, remove the CD and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.

If the player has not been used for a long time, set it in the playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes before inserting a cassette.
